This month over at Craftmad our sewing swap was to make a mobile phone case. However, my partner doesn't own a mobile phone so I have made her a glasses case. I found a great pattern here on About.com I have used felt as the liner for this case ....something I probably wouldn't do again as it made for thick seams. Athough when I ironed it they sat much flatter. I really love how the front of the case ended up with all the cute animals looking at you with their eyes. The rear to the case actually has a lot of the feet of animals. Pure fluke.
